2008 PAOBA Breeders Showcase Photo Contest is another great way to market
your farm! We all have those special photos of our alpacas that we hold
near and dear. So here’s your chance to show off your photography
skills, those special alpacas moments, and your wonderful alpacas. All
attendees and alpaca owners are invited to participate in the Photo
Contest (except for PAOBA photo contest committee members and photo
contest judges.) Photos will be judged on creativity, composition,
content, and artistic merit.
